General If you brick your device flashing .EU ROM. Here is some advice. - Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra

I spent ALL DAY yesterday on this forum and .EU Forum. BANGING MY HEAD trying to figure this out. I spent $90 of EDL services bricked my phone twice. Let me spare you the trouble.
SOME people are flashing from China ROM to .EU successfully but it seems like Luck.
SO if you end up bricked. Use MOD EDIT: Telegram Reference Removed. Have him put you on Global Rom 12.0.1. Cost $30 USD. I used him twice and another service that cost $35 once. I recommend MOD EDIT: Telegram Reference Removed because he seems like he legitimately cares to help you. THEN try flashing .EU over it(12.0.1 Global). It worked on my first try. There's reports from others here and .EU forums that this works.
So edl flash 12.0.1 Global. Then flash .EU via fastboot.
I crawled so you guys can walk. Because I really didn't mind the China ROM in the first place. I think I even prefer it over the .EU ROM that I'm now on. I sacrificed a day of sanity and $90 so we could find out a sure path to flash .EU as community. Now I think I still might go back to China 12.5.2 hahaha

To update my own thread. After spending LOTS of time tweaking .EU. I'm starting to really like it. Notifications are more consistent.
I tweaked the font to resemble China ROM instead of the awful Global Roboto. One of the reasons I kept thinking it didn't look "sharp" was because it wasn't
There was a "dynamic resolution feature" toggled on which dropped the resolution at times to save battery. NOPE turned that off.

Your doing God's work Sir
I'm on EU 12.5.2 and wouldn't dream of going back to an official China build
This one is so fast and snappy and WhatsApp notifications seem to be working much more regularly and less jerky

So if i have EDL enabled i can install Global Rom on China Rom phone?

Anyone else getting the feeling there will be no Nougat for our device?

I have a sixth sense for when a device has been all but abandoned, and I am getting that feeling now. Considering they just released a huge MIUI update without the Mix, I can't say I am particularly hopeful for the future of this phone. May be time to throw it up on swappa while it's still worth something.

The "huge MIUI update" you are referring to is MIUI 8.2. If you check your device info, you'll see that the Mix is already running MIUI 8.2. This is why you didn't see the Mix in the list of updated devices.
Now, regarding the Nougat update, considering Xiaomi built a lot of hype with the Mix, it is unlikely that Xiaomi will abandon this device.
But Xiaomi has a history of abandoning some really good devices like the MiPad. So we'll never know.
Well, no, its 8.2 global. A global rom doesn't even exist for the Mix. So I consider that a huge update.
N for the mix is already in testing according to mods on the eu and official forum. Also recently saw a listing for the mi mix EVO with a qc835, plus the CEO wants to build another mix....My gut feeling is this phone isn't going anywhere and we will have N within a quarter. Remember the s7 just got N on carriers in the US this week.

I also wonder why the phone does not sudgest an uppdate for 8.2 - does it mean that i cant uppdate my phone for future?

You won't receive any updates as long as you're on the Vendor ROM. You need to flash to the EU ROM or one of the custom ROMs in this forum using the guides provided. The guides are quite straightforward. So you'll safely boot the ROM you want providing you follow the guides EXACTLY.
I personally prefer the Xiaomi.EU ROM and I just checked the languages available on this ROM for you. Found "Norsk Bokmal" in the list of available language options. Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe this is Norwegian. I am not sure though as I don't know the language.
Cheers!

Whilst in no way invalidating the examples of times when their support wasn't great, there have also been times when Xiaomi's support for their devices has been well-above-average - someone recently posted a thread on reddit detailing one such example.
So we can't read too much into previous devices as a guide for what will happen with the Mix.
These sorts of threads appear for almost every device - it doesn't matter which device or which manufacturer, they inevitably pop up. People convince themselves they know what's going to happen and, most of the time, they're wrong.
Not to mention, Xiaomi have publicly stated the Mix will be one of their devices to be updated to Nougat.
A pretty unnecessary thing to say if they're secretly planning to ignore it.

Rooting the phone is not a necessity to flash the EU ROM.. You should flash the dm-verity and forced encryption disabler patch on TWRP if you don't plan to root. Follow the guides exactly and you'll be fine.

Ok, ty for pointers! I have not full understandig of what the different words mean when it comes to flash, twrp and even root. I will have to read a lot before starting.
But i have to root in order to get epic rom, right?

No, you have to unlock your bootloader only and flash TWRP using fastboot. But after installing Epic you're rooted anyway. Epic is pre rooted. For unlock procedure google unlock Xiaomi for example. Best is you start here:

Gesendet von meinem Xiaomi Mi MIX
Mine updated to 8.2.2.0 OTA just fine soon after I got things setup [it wanted or offered the update soon after being turned on - but I needed to sort stuff out first]. Abandoned ... hardly ... having run 7 on the Honor 8 and the Mate 9 ... its not THAT huge a thing to wait for it to come along through the usual process. Give it time and be patient, phones only a few months old anyways.

OEM Unlock

Hello everyone.
Seem like alot of people are getting the wanted OEM unlock now, WHO do we need to get a working PIE ROM going? Are we getting close?
I think a bounty needs to be started in order to get a Good recognised ROM created interested. They arent gonna pay for a device that isn't officially released in USA. I'm sure there is 90 people on XDA wanting a custom ROM willing to pay £10 each to a bounty to get a device for a developer.
Indeed now all the bootloader situation is solved it would be great to get some working non EMUI ROM working...
I would certainly contribute to a bounty but maybe better first we are where we are , if there is anyone working on this, or could be potentially interested ... Maybe we could start by renaming this thread to something more informative to see if we can get some interest on this topic?

Working on it...
I`m interested
Eur 10 is very justified if we can get a fully functioning non EMUI rom
With treble support and released kernel sources it seems to be very realistic.
The only thing I'm worried about is the camera, but in the P20 Pro forum they already have a port of the original one working on Lineage.
It looks like OEM Unlock could be enabled again in FW 9.0.0.171 according to another xda post I found via Google
When I had the OP5t I was very happy to use the LiquidROM Dabug123, maybe we should look in the same direction for compliling a ROM for the M20P
You still need to pay for a bootloader unlock code currently once you get to .171

Quick question guys. If I unlock my bootloader and root the phone, can I go back and re-lock it to bring the phone back to its original factory state?

I am not 100% sure about the Mate 20 Pro, but I had unlocked my previous Mate 10 Pro (with official unlock code from Huawei, and adb) and months later I easily re-locked it back, using the same code.
Forgive my ignorance but can i Flash a custom rom without unlocking the bootloader? If not is my only option to pay FunkHuwaei for a code?
no you can't and yes it is
Hello everyone, still on 153 here in Denmark on 3, should we reach out for other ROM maintainer for guides? Do any other than EMUI people and FH Guys "helping" us?

Mi9 t Pro Correct Twrp

Hi fellow Mi9 T owners i am a bit confused as to which version of twrp we need to use for the MI9T pro. Is it the same twrp as the K20 or should there be another one which we need to wait for. Also iff on global stable rom will flashing magisk root the phone withoout issues because i have read about people on global stable getting bootloops and the sytem booting into fastboot after flashing magisk. I hope someone can clear this up thanks.
Good question. Would need an answer, too.
Theoretically you should be able to use all K20 pro TWRP recoveries. But it's seems that some devs need to fix their TWRPs because of compatibility issue.

Great this working fine on 9T Pro Europe.
Hey guys, long time I have not been on XDA. I'm an early adopter of an European MI 9T PRO, and I just unlocked the bootloader.
Long story short :
I almost can't use any recovery, including the greek one. After flashing if I try to boot on the newly updated recovery, I get on fastboot.
I said almost because I can run this one : https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/development/unofficial-twrp-3-3-1-0-t3960391 but I cannot flash anything ! I always get stuck on error 7. Well, I have been able to see syberia OS splash screen, but that's it.
I think that all the recoveries have been thought for K20 pro, not MI 9T.
Did you guys achivied to run a flash with that greek recovery ? Coming from a european MI 9T PRO.
Thanks for your help.
Hello mine is a European mi9t Pro also and that is the reason I created this thread because in the telegram chat group all the discussions refer to the k20 Pro related recoveries. I'm not filled with much hope after reading your post because in a few hours I'm about to unlock my bootloader to. Have you tried the orange fox recovery that one might be another good one to try. Please get back to me if you have any luck with any of them and also I think the main thread should have been split and we should have had a separate xda page for the mi9t pro.
You could contact @mauronofrio and ask him for help.
I don't think there is much to do to fix all the problems.
Mi 9T Pro is recognized as "raphael_eea" and the K20 pro is just "raphael". Take some logs and show mauro. He knows what to do.:good:
I remember back on the Mi9 we had similar issues with "cepheus" and "xiaomi9".
I need to find the logs to send it to him.
Well I managed to root with the Greek twrp and although safety net passes none of my Banking apps or Google play will work.
I have a European Mi 9T Pro and unlocked my bootloader yesterday. I flashed mauronofrios TWRP (https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/development/recovery-unofficial-twrp-xiaomi-redmi-t3944363) using fastboot flash, booted into the newly installed TWRP (holding VolUp+Power keys), immediately installed Magisk 19.3, cleared Dalvik+Cache and rebooted to system. As far as i can see, everything works flawlessly. I did however not flash another ROM, especially not one based on Android 10. For the time being, i'm satisfied with using the default Pie-based EEA ROM with root.
That's the same as me but I have rooted the stock eea EU ROM. Works great although I have one issue that twrp is encrypted and I have to put in my pin every time to decrypt even tho I flashed encrypt disabler.

Flashing the disabler does not decrypt an already crypted data partition. You'd have to format the data partition, then flash the disabler. Losing all your data, of course...
that is exactly whta i did after rooting i then formated data followed by encrypt disabler but still encrypted.

Change rom to India or global

Hi.
I'm new in android world. Used to jailbreak.
But I don't wanna have random Chinese and the enoying get apps, browser in chinese. When I open different links they are used as standard and I can't change it.

So what's my best way to go? I don't understand recovery roms etc.
I'm on miui 11.0.2 and android 10
8gb ram. 256 gb storage

You'll never find a kdz, they don't make it available. I think Sprint is another carrier that doesn't make it available, but vzw does.
There are bkups of both at&t 9 and 10 people have made available, but you'll have to use qfil or bkerlers edl python to restore it. This is a link to my bkup, use it and one of the previous mentioned utilities to restore.
cheers
And btw, this is in the wrong forum. This should be in q&a, not rom and kernel development forum. This isn't about rom development, it's a question about rom bkups. You should ask a Moderator to move it.
cheers
please help me, I tried to unlock my lg v40 LM405UA ATET and it doesn't come out of the lg logo, I need the abl_a images
